Press into a 9-inch pie pan. Carefully spoon 3 cups of ice cream on top.
In the bowl, combine remaining 1 cup of ice cream with pistachio butter and stir until just combined. Do not over stir or you will lose volume. Spoon evenly over pie. Top with chopped, toasted pistachios. Cover and freeze 4 hours or until very firm.
At time of serving, drizzle chocolate syrup or melted chocolate over top if desired.
